One of the most useful responses I've implemented as a leader when getting pushback is simply asking open-ended questions: Why? How so? Why not? How are you going to handle it? People gripe, complain, and make excuses, but when you gently scrape all that away, they're left smelling the pile of refuse they tried to present to you as "reason."

So we have WW3 ratcheting up Political assassinations in one state Threats of assassinations in another state Riots in support of illegal immigration And fathers day tomorrow Did I miss anything this weekend? (So far)

GM losers The good: WW3 may be underway, and corn is still above $100k The bad: it is barely above $100k, despite sustained bullish metrics and adoption Resolution: Stay humble, stack sats Oh and also Stay strapped or get clapped

I've given our address to family, and they still can't find our place when they come out for the first time. The best part about living out here as WW3 is kicking off is that there will likely not be any of those hypersonic missiles aimed here.

If #bitcoin can hold above $100k for this yet-another proxy war 👀

My boss asked me today if I was paying attention to the riots in California... My genuine answer was no, and still is no. If you are, you either need to move, find more things to do, or both.

The thing that makes the "convert the world to #nostr" crowd hilarious is the fact that they don't realize they're in an echochamber. Normies by definition do not care, and no poorly-made ad promoting freedom tech is going to convince them. Have the last 5 years not taught you anything? 😂

Valet parking is fiat parking.

It's easy to feel like nothing ever changes. When in doubt, zoom out. (This doesn't just apply to #bitcoin)

What would be super helpful for @npub1ex7m...vyt9 to incorporate is an "account" function. Keep it all under your same strike account, but have different buckets of corn, similar to addresses in the same wallet. @jack mallers

GM losers It's 2025, and governments still kill men, women, and children who were born on the wrong patch of dirt.

There's a lot of "red-pilled" diets out there: paleo, keto, carnivore, etc... how about we keep it simple - if you could make it, grow it, or raise it on an off-grid homestead, probably good; and if you would have to get industrial machinery to produce it, bad. See? Keep it simple, stupid.

If my #Bitaxe found a block, I have two minds at war within me: The first says to pay everything off and live off savings forever The second says keep my nose to the grindstone and pay things off over time as planned, which would result in more #bitcoin leftover, at which point I would live off savings forever. Then reality hits me with the most likely outcome: I won't mine a block, and the latter option is my only one, only with far less corn. 😂

I sure am sad about draining my IRA years ago and dumping it all into self-custody #bitcoin. Could've had more stability, man...

How many Christians do you know who are overweight or obese? Funny how easily one forgets that gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins... Ding dongs and seed oils aren't part of "God's bounty" for you to enjoy on a routine basis. If you abstain from things because your "body is a temple," let's include the dinner table in that as well. Coming from the south, fat is just the culture. Fried food and potlucks washed down with sweet tea are a normal thing, and while it can build strong culture, the people end up sick, weak, and obese. Be strong, spiritually AND physically. Fast for your spiritual AND physical health. Arm yourself for the spiritual AND physical battle. Love one another, and walk humbly with the LORD. #biblestr #Christian #fasting #foodstr

@npub1ex7m...vyt9 @jack mallers Things I like: Bill pay Free DCA after a week Things I don't like: Spread + fee (why not one or the other?) When premium?
